Suncream recommendations

Hi all
My son - who is 20months - is very sensitive to suntan lotion. It when it gets on his face or near his eyes (he's good at rubbing his eyes even if i have not applied it there) which causes him to break out in hives on his face, nose to run and his eyes become so sore they puff up so much he can hardly see out of them.

I have tried so many different suncreams meant for allergies etc.... but cannot find one that doesn't make his eyes and face sore!

Does anyone have any recommendations please?

Thank you

Have you tried Sunsense yet?

No not yet - is it any good?

DD2 has super sensitive skin (although doesn't sound as bad as your DS's, poor lamb), and that's the only one I've found that she doesn't react to. It's quite ££ but sometimes it's on a deal from Ocado so that's when I stock up.

Before I discovered one that didn't bring her up in a angry rash we just did long loose clothes and shade and a hat. It wasn't as hot as this year though.
